A:
Do you mean all the anchors in any div element, or in some specific div element? If it's the former, this will do the trick:
$('div a').attr('target', '_blank');
If it's a particular div you're interested in, give that element an id attribute and then use it like so:
$('#divid a').attr('target', '_blank');
replacing "divid" with the id in question.
Can you be more specific about what exactly you want?
In any case, you're going to need to use the attr() function to set the attribute; see the documentation here.

The name of your div, or the id of your div? There's a big difference. If your div has an `id` attribute of `divLogo`, then you'd use `$('#divLogo a').attr('target', '_blank')` to do this. The `#` symbol is telling the function to look for an element with an `id` of `divLogo`. The `a` separated by a space tells it to look for `a` elements that are within that element.

I suggest you read up on jQuery selectors here: http://api.jquery.com/category/selectors/

A:
jQuery("#yourDIV a").attr("target", "_blank");
Have you read the jQuery docs? This can't be more basic.

A:
You are probably interested in a single div, not every div on page, so You have to identify it.
$('div#theDivsId a').attr('target','_blank');
or
$('div.theDivsClass a').attr('target','_blank');
PS. read documentation. it's easy.
